Thanks FrankoQ. I have installed LeoVince exhausts and just realized that need to have an aftermarket air-filter.

I just recieved my EMGO OEM airfilter, Identical to OEM ,even has the back fire screen.


$25 shipped, a Great deal for OEM filter 91170

And just where can the unenlightened purchase this Emgo filter for that price?

I got it off Amazon through (Riders Needs)

Thank you!
I am now enlightened. :tongue:

Please don't laugh me off the board, but I completed my first oil change last week without taking it to the dealer - the project this week is a new air filter. I have the service manual and even with this thread I am still stumped. I have the tank up, the four screws removed, but I cannot, for the l I've of me, figure out how to get the air filter cover off. Anyone have a good tip or pics - there has to be some kind of secret that I'm missing....... Thanks for helping a non-mechanically inclined guy try to do a little of his own maintenance.

I have not changed mine, I only have 7500 mi on my bike, but it should just be loosening the phillips screws around the perimeter of the air box.

Look again.
Remove the rest of the screws and it will lift off.
I think there is a total of 7 screws, 3 of which are not as easy to get to.
Kind of toward the rear of the filter housing.

Addendum: The pictures in the first post show the screw locations.

Correct, 7 screws, full perimeter.
